Aromas are melon, citrus, resin and malt. Flavors are similar to nose, a bit more sweet up front with some tang and bitter in back. Full-bodied, almost a bit heavy with decent carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle at the DCBeer May share. Poured a mostly clear, light amber hued orange color with a small off-white head. Aroma was some funky, tart grain. Floral bouquet, with passion fruit. Nice and pleasant and easy to drink.
Oaky tartness, mildly high acidity, nice funk. A little closer to SPON and any OG gueuze. Delish.

Refreshing and a fair amount of hops. Almost like an IPL if it was stronger.
Crisp and light. Floral hoppy notes.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear gold with a large creamy persistent white head. Aroma is citrus/pine with some tropical fruit. Med body. Flavor is very grapefruit, even pith, but there's still pine and something like green melon. Dry and West Coast bitter.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark brown with a large foamy tan head. Tmavy malt for aroma. Med body or so. Malty in that Tmavy dark malt way and not dry but not sugary. Bitter in what seems to be grass spice. A nice flavor indeed.

16oz can from Tavour. Murky golden pour, short lived foamy white head. Light fruity aroma, blend of tropical and stone fruit. Taste is fruity and brings the heat, apricot, mango with a heavy feel. Comes across as stronger than the lusted 8.2%>

750ml bottle. Opaque, darkest brown colour with slightly late awakening, small to average, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Intense and condensed, caramel malty aroma, spicy-woody and minimally fruity overtones, notes of caramel, some marzipan, a touch of vanilla, cedar, whiffs of tobacco. Taste is sweet-ish, caramel malty, minimally vinous fruity, slightly tannic, woody, notes of caramel, some marzipan, a touch of vanilla, oak, white wine; minimally warming, alcoholic finish.
Viscous texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, fine, dense, soft, creamy carbonation.
Immensely sweet, a tad disharmonious, not overly complex - okay-ish, not really morish sipper.
